I don't think anyone who is in the situation where they are a rock star would be there if they didn't dream of it as a kid, listening to Rolling Stones or Led Zeppelin or Kiss records. There were things that really bothered me about it for a while because a lot of it is set up as a lie -- it's not really as it seems, the picture that's painted. Like the whole myth of sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll -- it isn't this beautiful picture. But it's kind of hip today to complain about success.I dont like poseurs claiming they like our music in the sense they're just a wanna be Pilots. I dont like alternative! So stop using that coz it's for cowards. And we prove it right, we kick ass out of their shit! Alternative don't even exist!....fuck you! And thanks to all my fans for believing and supporting my endeavours. You know who you are! Again, thank you for supporting Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver as well.Sincerely and Rockingly Yours/Scott Richard Weiland
